Chapter 128: The Queen's Message
It is said that Guo Xiaoxiao came back from Imperial Doctor Zhang's mansion, and really invited the imperial doctor, and Mrs. Guo hurriedly pretended to be sick in bed.
Imperial Physician Zhang knew the real situation of Mrs. Guo as soon as he took the pulse, but when he looked at Guo Xiaoxiao's micro-expression, Imperial Physician Zhang knew the reason, and did not expose it, but prescribed medicine to Mrs. Guo. As Mrs. Guo said, it was just some tonic medicine.
Guo Xiaoxiao deliberately said that Mrs. Guo's condition was very serious, and Imperial Doctor Zhang deserved to be the old doctor in the palace, and he understood the meaning of Guo Xiaoxiao's words with just one look. So Doctor Zhang proposed to give Mrs. Guo acupuncture, and Mrs. Guo was frightened when she heard it, and almost fell off the bed.
Imperial Doctor Zhang seized the time and said, it seems that Madame's illness has been cured.
Mrs. Guo knew that Guo Xiaoxiao was colluding with Imperial Doctor Zhang to step down from her stage. Although he had seen through Guo Xiaoxiao's tricks, he dared not speak out in anger, so he could only quietly send away Imperial Doctor Zhang and then ask Xiaozhu to decoct the medicine. was pretending to be sick, so he didn't dare to blame Guo Xiaoxiao. Guo Xiaoxiao smiled proudly, asked Xiaozhu to take care of Mrs. Guo, and then walked out of the bedroom with Nan Yue.
Nan Yue said as she walked: "It's still the county lord who has a way." ”
Guo Xiaoxiao smiled faintly: "It's just pushing the boat down the river." ”
Nan Yue saw Guo Xiaoxiao frowning, so she asked, "Why is the county lord a little sad?" ”
Guo Xiaoxiao sighed and said, "When did my mother become like this?" In the past, her mother was virtuous and virtuous, her manners were elegant, and she never pretended to be coquettish, but today she pretended to be sick for Qianqian, which is not like her mother's style. ”
"The slave and maid have a word, and I don't know whether to say it or not."
"You and I are already people who live and die together, what else is there to avoid!" Guo Xiaoxiao picked up the hem of his skirt and went down the steps.
The azaleas in the yard were blooming just right, and Guo Xiaoxiao walked over slowly.
"Nostalgic empty chanting and listening to the flute, going to the countryside like a rotten Ke person." Nan Yue raised her head slightly and sighed, "Everything in the world will change, and so will people. Maybe the lady has changed a long time ago, but the county lord has never noticed it. ”
"Really?" Guo Xiaoxiao stretched out his hand to pick a green leaf and put it in his hand to play, "When you go to the countryside, you look like a rotten Ke person, and those changes that are invisible to the naked eye are actually real." Sometimes I think if only time could stop. It doesn't matter if it's in a good phase or a bad phase, as long as it can stop. ”
"What the county lord said, the slave didn't understand very well. If it stops at the bad stage, most of the things that happen are bad, why does the county lord want to stay at that time? ”
"Because I don't want to suffer...... Because things could get worse. Only time stands still can prevent bad things from happening. ”
For some reason, Nan Yue felt that what Guo Xiaoxiao said today was a little strange, what "time stands still" and "prevents bad things from happening", the more Nan Yue listened, the more confused she became.
Even so, Nan Yue was already by Guo Xiaoxiao's side to accompany her, because Nan Yue knew that Guo Xiaoxiao no longer had too many people to complain to. If Guo Xiaoxiao has something on his mind, he will hold it in his heart, and after a long time, he will accumulate more and more, and he is prone to heart disease.
At this moment, Luo Xuan walked quickly towards the courtyard.
Guo Xiaoxiao heard the sound of hurried footsteps, and hurriedly turned around to salute.
Luo Xuan picked up Guo Xiaoxiao with both hands and said, "Sister Yan doesn't have to be polite. ”
Guo Xiaoxiao frowned slightly when he saw him, and asked, "But what happened?" ”
Luo Xuan thought for a while and said, "Someone from the palace just came to say that it was the queen's mother's message, and he wanted to pass you on to meet him." ”
"The Queen?" Guo Xiaoxiao and Nan Yue were both shocked.
"Yes."
"It's definitely not easy." Guo Xiaoxiao thought to himself, he was just a small county lord, how could he be personally received by the queen.
"Sister Chang guessed something?" Luo Xuan looked at Guo Xiaoxiao's eyes.
"It seems that Brother Xuan is the same as I think?" Guo Xiao smiled.
"Since my return to the DPRK, I have always maintained a central position. The queen and the queen were at odds with each other, and repeatedly hinted that I was on her side, but I replied to her ambiguously. This time, it should be that the queen can't bear it and forces our Luo family to choose one side from it. ”
Guo Xiaoxiao lowered his eyes, but he didn't expect that as soon as he entered the Beijing Division, he would be embattled. Luo Xuan also hesitated for a long time before telling Guo Xiaoxiao.
"If Sister Chang is unwilling to go, I will refuse the queen."
"Brother Xuan!" Guo Xiaoxiao hurriedly grabbed Luo Xuan's arm.
Luo Xuan does what he says, he is not even afraid of death, is he still afraid of the queen? No matter how dangerous the open guns and hidden arrows are, as long as they are not shot at Guo Xiaoxiao, Luo Xuan has no scruples. But if Guo Xiaoxiao's safety is implicated, even if he is charged with disobedience, Luo Xuan is fearless.
"Brother Xuan, if you can't bear it, you will make a big plan." Guo Xiaoxiao patiently persuaded Luo Xuan, "Don't be rash. ”
"I don't care about the rest, but I can't care about my sister's safety." Luo Xuan was very serious when he said this, and he was not ambiguous at all.
Guo Xiaoxiao's eyes flashed with tears, and he was almost about to cry. Luo Xuan comforted: "Sister Chang, don't cry, no matter what happens, I will be the first to stand in front of Sister Yan." As long as I, Luo Xuan, am here, no one can hurt you. ”
"You and I have only been sisters and brothers for a few months, you ...... Why, why are you so good to me? Guo Xiaoxiao hid his face and wept, choked up and couldn't speak.
Luo Xuan held Guo Xiaoxiao's hand tightly and said, "Because Sister Yan and I are real brothers and sisters, and we are the most noble bloodline of the Luo family." ”
"Brother Xuan......"
"I don't ask for anything, as long as my sister can understand everything I have done for the Luo family, Luo Xuan's death is not a pity."
"Brother Xuan!" Guo Xiaoxiao shouted, and finally admitted their sister-brother relationship. In the past, he was called Brother Xuan, but it was just politeness and formality, only this moment of "Brother Xuan" was sincere.
"Sister Yan......" Luo Xuan shouted emotionally, and the topic returned to the matter of the queen's visit, "If Sister Chang really doesn't want to go, I will refuse the queen's mother." ”
"No!" Guo Xiaoxiao grabbed Luo Xuan and didn't let him go, "The soldiers are coming to block, the water is coming to cover the earth, Luo Xuan has done too many things for the Luo family, and Sister Yan can't sit back and enjoy the benefits of a fisherman." Please let me go! ”
"Sister Chang!"
From this time on, Guo Xiaoxiao and Luo Xuan really entered the hearts of the opposite and became close to each other.
Before you know it, it's May, and the weather is getting hotter. Guo Xiaoxiao painted a gorgeous costume, put on a ceremonial crown, and got into the carriage leading to the palace. He was still accompanied by dozens of guards, surrounding the carriage on all sides. After the last assassination, Luo Xuan no longer trusts anyone other than him.
Guo Xiaoxiao sat in a breezy carriage, and the tulle on the roof of the carriage loomed her luxurious grace. A gust of wind blew, and the demeanor of the lord of Daming County was fully displayed in front of the people.
Guo Qianqian hurriedly chased out of the general's mansion, she had just learned that Guo Xiaoxiao was going to enter the palace to meet the queen. She stood in place and looked at the convoy of the county lord of Baoyi, and when she saw Guo Xiaoxiao's majesty, a wave of anger rose in her heart.
Luo Xuan was around the carriage to protect Guo Xiaoxiao, and when he saw Guo Qianqian standing in front of the general's mansion, he looked back at her slightly. Guo Qianqian noticed that Luo Xuan was looking back at herself, so she immediately shrank behind Mrs. Guo.
Luo Xuan chuckled lightly and continued to ride his horse to follow the convoy. Guo Xiaoxiao saw Luo Xuan smiling, so he asked, "What made our majestic and moody general laugh?" ”
Luo Xuan raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "It's okay." ”
But the more Luo Xuan was like this, the more curious Guo Xiaoxiao became, and he turned his face to look back, but he didn't see anything.
When he was about to arrive at the palace gate, Luo Xuan said to Guo Xiaoxiao: "I'm about to meet the queen, is my sister afraid?" ”
Guo Xiaoxiao saved the handkerchief in his hand and said, "With Brother Xuan here, I'm not afraid." ”
Luo Xuan smiled warmly when he heard this, and Guo Xiaoxiao smiled in return.
Although Guo Xiaoxiao said this, he didn't think so in his heart. Luo Xuan has already taken on too many things, and he can't put pressure on him anymore. The reason why she said that was to make Luo Xuan feel relieved. She knew that Luo Xuan was trying to give her a sense of security, so she had to show that she was feeling safe no matter what. This is a white lie.
The internal official was waiting at the palace gate, and when he saw Luo Xuan and the guards, the internal official said: "The queen mother only received the lord of Baoyi, and asked General Luo, the guards, and the entourage to wait outside the palace gate." ”
Without waiting for Guo Xiaoxiao to speak, Luo Xuan said: "Sister Yan saw the queen for the first time, I'm afraid I won't be able to do a good job, please let me go with Sister Yan." ”
The internal official said contemptuously: "This is the queen's mother's message, and the old slave has no choice." ”
Guo Xiaoxiao took a step forward, bowed slightly, and said: "The internal official is an old man in the palace, please ask the internal official to talk to the queen mother, and let General Luo go in with me." ”
The internal official said: "Please don't embarrass the old slave anymore, the queen's dictation, how dare the old slave disobey?" ”
Luo Xuan and Guo Xiaoxiao glanced at each other, and said sharply: "If the queen doesn't let me go in together, then I will go home with my sister." ”
The internal official said: "The general is disobeying the order." ”
Luo Xuan said: "What? ”
The internal official panicked, and he didn't know what to say for a while. Luo Xuan wore a sword on his waist, and he looked obedient and domineering, which made the internal officials frightened. He raised his hand and waved it, and said in a loud voice: "Go home!" ”
The entourage of the guards immediately turned around, Luo Xuan made a "please" gesture to Guo Xiaoxiao, Guo Xiaoxiao frowned, worried that if he offended Tianwei, the queen would blame him, and Luo Xuan would be punished.
Who is Luo Xuan smiled slightly, glanced at her, and told her to get in the car. Guo Xiaoxiao picked up her skirt and got into the carriage, and Nan Yue followed beside the carriage. The internal official was dumbfounded: "You guys! You dare to resist! ”
"It's the internal officials who resist the decree!" Luo Xuan said sonorously, "I, Luo Xuan, resisted today's decree, all because of the internal officials!" ”
"You!" The internal official was angry and wanted to use his finger Luo Xuan, but he didn't dare, and his fingers stopped trembling in mid-air.
Fang asked the internal officials to raise their noble hands, but the internal officials refused to be accommodating, forcing Luo Xuan into a desperate situation. There is no way for the internal officials to disobey the queen's words, and Luo Xuan has no way to stay at the palace gate and sit still. ”
Luo Xuan took the horse from Zhang Yun's hand, and was about to turn over on the horse's back, when the internal official suddenly shouted: "General, please stay!" General, please stay! ”
